Will the No. 4 Notre Dame Fighting Irish be on the field today in Week 15 of the college football schedule?
Following a 49-35 victory over the USC Trojans, Notre Dame is on a bye week and will return to the field once the College Football Playoff field is set.
The Irish are almost certainly in the College Football Playoff, and they might even get a home game in South Bend. Since the Irish aren’t part of a conference, they cannot get a bye in the first round. With their AP Top 25 rank sitting at No. 4, it’s likely the Irish will be the five seed, which would give them a home game either on Friday, Dec. 20 or Saturday, Dec. 21.
This weekend is conference championship play, and the outcomes of those games will mostly set the CFP field.
